But it was simply the arrival. The official welcome and events start tomorrow. She isn't the first Royal, when not having an official airport greeting and events right away, who wasn't decked out when they got off the airplane,

I can't wait to see tomorrow, which I guess it already is in Japan. I have no doubt she will step it up.

Now this is a really lovely look and colour on Letizia and the earrings I think are or were Queen Sofia's .Much classier look compared to the leather clad Letizia from the arrival yesterday which was baffling.

The coat is absolutely lovely. Maybe I'm reading to much into the choice of jewellery and style of the clothes, but as in the earrings case, I think there is a subtle nod to Japan with the shape of the neckline and the style of the closing (a little kimono-like), while being still done in a very occidental way. I love that.

The dark red velvet is not bad but leaves me a little off, I can't help but think the coat would look outstanding with a clear lighter dress below.

the leather and that vivid red colour of the coat do not strike me as something very japan-appropriate, where all the royal ladies are always dressed in subdued colours such as whites and pastels. most likely this coat was created for this visit so i wonder why she/her designer didn't choose a colour which would blend better with the rest of royal outfits. the last time she visited the emperor and empress she wore a light yellow colour which seemed more appropriate.

for the gala, letizia decided to wear a dress showing some super cleavage.

I like Letizia wearing this blue, she's trying new colours. Looks fresh and love the hairstyle. I keep thinking her hair-stylist should win an Oscar considering the incredible influence she's making on how Letizia looks.
